Does the Bible describe how God created the various plants and creatures? Like exactly how He devised and assembled the various parts and so on?

It would take too many verses to describe how God created plants or animals. It can never be described sufficiently.

However, I believe the creation did not just happen in six days. I believe God took much time and interests to create the ecology and varieties of trees and vegetation , then design the multitude of living creatures and animals. The word "day" means "stage", But the Scripture use the word "day" because it fit the prose of writing in religious manuscript, but it certainly does not mean a 24 hour day.

A little accuracy would not have hurt

If you find an excuse to turn your back on Jesus, I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding excuses to turn your back His people.
And the capital IF.
First show that anyone has found an excuse to turn their back on Jesus.
Start there.

Mohammad taught a threefold redemption plan:
  1. The prophet Moses was to take the gentiles and make them Jews.
  2. The prophet Jesus was to take the gentiles and Jews and make them Christians.
  3. The prophet Mohammad was to take the gentiles, Jews, and Christians and make them Muslims.
That's why Mohammad was friendly to Christians -- at first.

But when the Christians refused to convert to Islam, the gloves came off and Mohammad's convert-or-die doctrine became a reality.

Allah was the primary deity of the Quraysh tribe; the tribe Mohammad was from.
Mohamed's convert-or-die doctrine was invented by 19th century missionaries being sent to the Ottoman Empire.
It continues to not exist outside adventure novels, movies, and propaganda.

Sure.

1. He never existed.
2. He did exist, but He wasn't who He said He was.
3. He was a deceiver, liar, lunatick, legend, various other things.

How's that for starters?

So no excuses. Just reasons.
